Does Georgia break through the Nick Saban shield and win a national championship?
Bulldog fans are hopeful that next week will conclude with a College Football Playoff trophy for the first time in 41 years. Kirby Smart has not defeated Saban, but national media and betting sites believe his moment has arrived. After suffering a 24-41 loss to Alabama in the SEC Championship Game, Georgia players see the rematch as a different story.
Jordan Davis, a senior defensive lineman, wanted this matchup. The 6-foot-6, 340-pounder won the Chuck Bednarik, Outland Trophy, first-team All-SEC honors, and Unanimous All-American honors for his efforts.
